I spotted this ceramic pumpkin in a charity shop today and couldn't resist it although it will now be packed away until the autumn.

It was a cold wet day today and when I woke there were strings of water droplets hung on spider's webs in the garden.

Day 33 - February 2nd
This morning was bright and sunny and we walked one of our favourite routes - Priory Park Bedford to Danish Camp near Willington.
The water level in the river is still very high.
Reaching Danish Camp we stopped for a quick drink and cake whilst overlooking the water.
We were joined briefly by a robin who observed us from the top of a bird feeder.

I made a trip to Biggleswade today for a hair cut and noticed this Drinking Fountain near the market square. The drinking fountain which was first erected in 1908 following Queen Victoria Diamond Jubilee celebrations and the coronation of King Edward VIII and was restored in its present location to mark the Golden Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II.

Today I took part in the RSPB's Big Garden Bird Watch. During the first 45minutes there weren't many birds to count but thankfully in the last 15 minutes we saw quite a few.

This cactus (and its partner) are my nemesis! Given to Lara several years ago, they now stand on my kitchen windowsil. I have to be so careful when my hands are anywhere near it because its prickles are lethal.

Day 19 - January 19th
This morning we drove to Knebworth for an almost 8 mile walk through the grounds of Knebworth House and the surrounding countryside.
As soon as we entered Knebworth Park we were greeted with the sight of a small herd of Red Deer cautiously watching us from a distance.
We passed the Grade II listed Knebworth House which has been the home of the Lytton family since 1490 and the nearby Church of St Mary and St Thomas.
We then headed out of the park through woodland .
We found ourselves in open countryside and farmland.
Heavily coated sheep watched us pass by.
Towards the end of the walk we re-entered the Knebworth estate passing the Monument to Elizabeth Bulwer Lytton, who died 1842, and was erected by her son the 19th century novelist Edward Bulwer Lytton
